Evening, Krev: one thing about Year pages is that they link to only one article: the issue directly being addressed by the entry. In your case, which of the three links best details the events of the entry: "Terens Amaris is designated the heir-apparent to the Rim Worlds Republic consulship"? If it's Terens Amaris, then that would be the only link in that entry. (The idea is to keep the year pages from becoming messes of descriptive paragraphs of the event, with citations and exposition, which is best handled by the linked article). In this case, the event is the designation, so one of those three linked articles will explain the event better than the other two. This [[Policy:Year_Pages#One_wikilink|policy section]] might be a better guide.--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 22:39, 2 June 2021 (EDT) | Evening, Krev: one thing about Year pages is that they link to only one article: the issue directly being addressed by the entry.

Award[edit]
Welcome to the Wiki Krev and possibly the fastest anybody has ever been given an award.
I present to you a good humor award for the burger related insanity on the discord. I hope you write us a series of articles on them now!--Dmon (talk) 14:30, 26 May 2021 (EDT)
- Great application, Dmon, and truly earned, Krev. Who knew that an interest in cutlery would lead you to such high achievement in in the culinary arts? (I did.)--Revanche (talk|contribs) 06:49, 27 May 2021 (EDT)
///
the first step to burger is the foundational components, of which quillar is probably one;
essential, however, to a complete meal is a drink, which the zeus burger arcturan shake may have more a distinction of filling than Quillar Fizz
i hope to fulfill the hunger-based voids that exist, or at least do something useful - Krev (talk)

Evening, Krev: one thing about Year pages is that they link to only one article: the issue directly being addressed by the entry. In your case, which of the three links best details the events of the entry: "Terens Amaris is designated the heir-apparent to the Rim Worlds Republic consulship"? If it's Terens Amaris, then that would be the only link in that entry. (The idea is to keep the year pages from becoming messes of descriptive paragraphs of the event, with citations and exposition, which is best handled by the linked article). In this case, the event is the designation, so one of those three linked articles will explain the event better than the other two. This policy section might be a better guide.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 22:39, 2 June 2021 (EDT)
- Alrighty; I did feel like I was throwing out way too many links in recent edits, and I do think I need to work to make my additions a little more lean.
- As far as that goes, I feel like the RWR page describes the event better right now than the character page, but I'd generally presume linking to the character would be sufficient enough. I'll make sure to come back around to clean that up once I finish some source-checking stuff for the RWR page - that, or I can handle that right now, actually.

- Ok, but to be clear, "lean" is only expected (as policy) for the Year pages. Any "leanness" expectation for other articles are your own, as you know best your writing style.
- If you feel the RWR page is the best, then link to that, definitely. It's your call. As long as the linked article is the "source" of the data (meaning, it must back the entry on the Year page), then you're good. For example, you can't open a sourcebook, see the year...2733 mentioned, and just add an try to that year page, linking to an article page; the article page must support the statement made on the Year page.
